Yogyakarta's time zone and viewing hours

Local time in Yogyakarta is UTC+7, with no clock change. Between 19:00 and 23:00 local (12:00–16:00 UTC) shared networks are at their fullest, which is when Silux Media's lower data use matters most.

Close to the equator, Yogyakarta has about 11 h 40 min–12 h 35 min of daylight all year, so evening viewing starts at much the same time in every season.

Questions from Yogyakarta

Will it work on the way to Semarang?

How much mobile data does a film use in Yogyakarta?

Roughly 0.6 GB for an hour of 720p and 1.0 GB in 1080p, so a two-hour film in HD fits in about 2.0 GB of your plan.
